Your significant investment in those worthy pieces of wooden arts expected to last for generations.
To preserve its beauty and extend its lifetime, mother of pearl furniture needs a proper care. Leventique products are touched up with two to three coats of lacquer for extra depth and long-lasting durability. This process of finishing has done to protect the woods and preserve its sheen or gloss.
With regular and special care, the finish will last longer granting you extended years of satisfaction and pleasure with your special masterpiece.
Those are few important steps we advise you to follow to protect and take care or your furniture:
- Avoid placing your furniture in direct sunlight for long time, as sunlight causes fading.
- Avoid extreme changes in temperature by arranging furniture away from radiators, heat and air vents and air conditioning units.
- Periodically rotate accessories on furniture so they do not sit in the same spot all the time.
- Use pads, cloth or felt to protect the furniture surface from plastic, rubber, hot dishes, beverages, bookends, flowerpots, and vases.
- Blotting up spilled water immediately. Because the left-over water for a long period of time will cause white spots in the finish.
- Avoid spilling any alcohol, perfume, and medications. It could cause severe harsh to the finish.
CLEANING AND POLISHING YOUR FURNITURE
Wood, mother of pearl and bone are all-natural materials and can be damaged by inappropriate cleaning.
All these materials are porous, so they should never be immersed in water and Non-invasive conservation cleaning techniques should always be used.
The best way to clean the mother of pearl furniture items is to dust frequently by using a vacuum with soft brush and a clean, soft, dry, lint-free cloth.
For more stubborn dirt, a cotton bud with a very small amount of soapy water can be used, but make sure you wipe the area again with a second bud with just water on it, and then dry immediately.
The cotton buds must not be too wet, so squeeze them very well before use.
To avoid scratching the finish, always use feather duster, very soft or fiber cloths and wipe your furniture with minimal pressure.
